Marriage of workers (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

union

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'marriage' is the first definition.
(I know that marriage can be written as union)

'of workers' is the second definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for union that I've seen before include "See 22" , "The coming together of separate parts" , "Agreement -- wedlock" , "mating" , "Organisation of employees formed to bargain with the employer" .)
